8.7 oz Tartan Oilskin in Hunter Brown

This high-quality cotton oilskin, made in the UK, features a silkwax finish. Somewhere between a waxed cotton and a dry oilskin, the texture is soft and (as evidenced by the name) slightly oily. It’s water-resistant, has a matte finish and, unlike waxed cotton, the finish doesn’t permanently crease.

We ran a few tests and determined that the silkwax does transfer onto finer textiles like rayon and silk. As such, if you’re planning to pair this oilskin with a lining we suggest using a midweight cotton or quilting cotton. 

Use this gorgeous fabric to make any Klum House bag, an M&M Landgate Jacket, or a beautiful lined Thayer Jacket!
